Hartlepool , My Hometown St Hilda's bathed in sunlight Is a sight i love to see The Marina with it's many boats, that’s the place for me Back down to the Headland for Verill's fish and chips Hartlepool it's my hometown We have the shopping centre, empty units galore And I think of all the great shops we had in days of yore Blacketts, Sages, Robinsons, bargain by the score Hartlepool is my hometown I grew up on the Central Estate everyone knew everyone Now everyone keeps to themselves, so sad the Central's gone The town i knew it is long gone, this is sad but true Old Hartlepool, I'm missing you
